"A reason that the furniture and the boxes and virtually every piece of household good that the Shakers made, from a humble dustpan to the most beautiful credenza, was so perfect, is because they believed that work was an important part of their spiritual life, an important part of prayer, if you will. And it was important to devote yourself fully to the making of those household objects, the most humble to the most high and mighty, as it was in religious ceremonies."
